First Aid Trainer

St John Ambulance

Charlie Weeks-Bell is a St John Ambulance Trainer. He teaches the paediatric first aid course across London and often does media work on behalf of St John Ambulance. Charlie and his colleague Heather Graham demonstrate how to perform baby first aid.

Questions that they help to answer:

• How many chest compressions and breaths do I perform on a baby?
• Should I carry my unconscious baby to the phone to call 999?
• What do I do if my baby chokes?
• Should I make my baby bring up any poison they’ve eaten?
• How should I resuscitate a baby?
